You may have found your gown, but have you found your reception dress? This year is all about the mini, and we have so many fun options! From flouncy frocks with ruffles to short structured silhouettes, here are some of our favorite [second] looks!

For the Timeless Bride

You’re looking for something that you will actually wear again, something that doesn’t lean into the trends. Go for something sleek like one of these beautiful mini dresses that puts the emphasis on fit and structure. A mini dress is also a great excuse to splurge on those designer flats you’ve been dreaming about, so you can really dance the night away.

For the Party Girl

For you, the switch is not about comfort; it’s all about getting the party started. You’re gonna want some bling, be it beads or sequins. And how fun are the feathers on this one?! Now all you need is a disco ball and a killer DJ and you’re ready to go!

For the Princess Bride

You’ve been dreaming about this day for as long as you can remember, so babe, get the second dress! Pull shopping inspo from elements on your ceremony gown, like lace, a corseted bodice, or a flowy skirt, and find a mini dress that feels like the same vibe, but none of the fuss and all of the fun!

Styling Tips

You’ll be shocked at how much accessories can switch up a look, especially when you’re styling a mini dress. From your shoe choice to your hairstyle, there are so many ways to express yourself, so let’s dive in!

Opera Gloves

Gloves are having a major moment, and we can’t get enough of a bride in a mini dress with some gorgeous opera gloves. Just think of the photos–the glamour! *chef’s kiss*

Short Veils

There is only one day in your life that you get to wear a veil, so why not wear two? If you have a long veil for the ceremony, it’s only right that you should switch things up to a cute, short veil for the reception, right?

Scarves

Do we even need to tell you how much we’re loving bridal scarves at the moment. Seriously, if you don’t have one of these draped around your neck at some point during your wedding weekend, did you even get married?
